The world has been hit with major uncertainty especially addictive behavioural issues. I have witnessed the attendance of my SMART Recovery meeting increase from 5 people to 25. People are filled with fear, frustration, mental health issues. The common factor has been losing their jobs, boredom, relationships just to name a few. The good news is that people are starting to accept what they can't control or change in the world but they know that they can change the way they feel, think and behave when it comes to their addictions. I have seen a massive shift with mindset after learning the SMART Recovery's tools and tips that I train to those who are taking action. They know now that the problem in their life can be changed with practice, patience and persistence.
Stefan Neff had been living with addictive behaviours from the age of 12 until 46 years of age, after releasing his addictions in 2016 he found himself struggling time to time with urges even though he had released addiction on his own, then life changed after a good friend introduced him to the power of choice with SMART Recovery.
After going to his first SMART meeting in 2018 Stefan fell in love with the science aspect that the facilitator was speaking about. He knew right then and there that this is something that he wanted to be part of.
A few weeks later he found himself online taking the facilitators training to become part of a team with SMART Recovery. Stefan added the role of regional coordinator in British Columbia Canada guiding 175 facilitators in my Canadian province.
Stefan's 3 top tips:
1. ABC’s tool that will change the way people feel, think and behave in life.
2. One of the most powerful processes that helps me with self-acceptance was the mirror exercise.
3. The power of choice is Key to sobriety. I know that I am largely responsible for my addictive behaviour. I know that there is nothing wrong with me, I just had an unwanted belief about my self-worth as a person.
